A paid solicitor is a person who is paid to solicit contributions in
Colorado. This includes any services connected to soliciting
contributions, such as employing or contracting with other paid persons to solicit contributions.

There are a few exemptions [1], including bona fide volunteers, officers or employees of certain types
of tax-exempt organizations [2].
Lawyers, investment counselors, or bankers who advise
a person to make a charitable contribution are also exempt.

Anyone
who mails fundraising literature is considered to be a paid solicitor,
unless that person's only responsibility is the printing and mailing
of literature. This exemption is intended to cover people in the
printing
industry.

Why do I need an account?

You must create an account before registering as a paid solicitor. The account will tie your filings together, and only people with access to this account can file documents or make changes to your records.

Enter an email address. Our office will use this email address to contact the paid solicitor about the account and any filings. Examples might include resetting a password or sending reminders about filing deadlines.

Enter a daytime telephone number.
